I did a "Install (entire disk) in Lubuntu Desktop amd64 in Bionic Daily"
on a virtual-machine (virtual box on fedora 29 host) and window borders were evident at all times on this install (same downloaded ISO mounted from nfs share)

//-- comments made on QA-test
vm on hp 8200 elite sff (i5-2400, 8gb, nvidia quadro 600), host fed29 using vbox
vm allocated 2gb ram & 10gb storage... need a 18.04 system for another qa-test
no issues; (borders on windows visible on installer here!)

** Summary changed:

- Lubuntu 18.04.2 qa-test - pop ups hard to read without borders
+ Lubuntu 18.04.2 qa-test - pop ups hard to read without window-borders

  Lubuntu 18.04.2 qa-test - pop ups hard to read without window-borders

Bug description:
  Lubuntu 18.04.2 QA-test install (something-else)

  During partitioning, with the "Something else" visible & a list of my
  disk partitions, windows are opening top left of screen, they are
  borderless and it looks as if part of the window is off-screen, which
  seems confirmed when I open the "do not use this partition" list-box
  to select "ext4" and the positioning on the list is at the bottom
  going up off screen... this is not ideal, and not when I raised this
  bug.

  I've now selected all partitions and clicked "install now" and it
  stops.

  in the middle of the white-background borderless "Something else"
  window showing the table of my partitions, a borderless window is
  there asking me

  "If you continue, the changes listed below will be written to the
  disks. Otherwise, you will be able to make further changes manually.
  \n The following partitions are going to be formatted: ..."

  This is white (or near-white) background drawn on the white background
  of the Something-else table of my disk partitions & thus near
  invisible.

  This does NOT affect usability, but it COULD cause people to wait as
  they clicked INSTALL NOW & the borderless window is asking them a
  question, that would be very easy to miss.

  The font used in the question I think is smaller, or slightly
  different, but color of the question (continue, go back) is very-
  similar to the table of my partitions &
  device.for.boot.loader.installation.

  The lack of borders on the window is I believe the missing issue
  (though pop-up boxes a different color background may also resolve
  this issue).

  This is a COSMETIC issue only.
